AGRA: To upset NDA‘s Jat calculations, there are strong indications of Congress fielding boxer-turned-politician Vijender Singh from Mathura LS seat. As per senior Congress leaders, if all goes well, Singh, who belongs to Jat community, will take on two-time MP and BJP candidate Hema Malini.
The buzz regarding Singh contesting from the seat got stronger after he posted a cryptic ‘Radhe Radhe’ (salutation used in Mathura-Vrindavan area) on his social media handle on Friday.
Jats comprise over 35% of voters in Mathura. BJP has been prominently flaunting Hema’s ‘Jat Bahu’ status in public meetings. Her husband, Dharmendra, an icon of the community, is also expected to campaign for her like he did in 2019 polls.
